Why You Shouldn’t Wait To Get Tickets

If you are planning to attend the screening of the ski and snowboard documentary, “The Story” please plan to purchase your tickets in advance sometime this week.

The Past 222 Days

I have come all the way around the circle of being treated and recovering from the chemical beatings, and now it is time to take stock of the situation.

Here we go again

It’s Tuesday night.  Tomorrow morning I will be in Dr. Montero’s office and I will find out for sure if I am done, or if I have to get more of the chemo juice.  It’s going to be tough to sleep tonight.
